See, they're getting it wrong. They're not supposed to slam activists. They're supposed to slam the seals. :)

The seal hunt still separates Canada from the rest of the euroweenies who would never do anything so barbaric. So, I still retain a little hope for Canada.

Hmm..all i care about is how they taste (seals that is, and no, not the ones from BUD/S!).

"I think that they (the Canadian government) are feeling the heat ... they can see the really serious implication of going ahead with the hunt this year,"

Yes, especially since none of the batters are being tested for steroids first!

To the tune of "O Tannenbaum," and with apologies to the Simpsons ...

O Whacking Day, O Whacking Day
That jubilant seal-smacking day ...

If I could afford to eat there, I'd go to Red Lobster and ask for Canadian seafood.
Eco-nuts do not have the environment or animal populations in their interests- they only have destroying people as their interest.

Can I club seals with an activist? I promise I won't actually hurt any seals I'll club rocks instead.

Personally I'd rather slam the seals and club the Activists :P

It's either club the baby seals or feed, house and cloth the unemployed fishermen for life.

"pictures of hunters clubbing defenseless animals to death have turned the event into an annual public relations nightmare for the government."


Instead of clubs they should use Nukes. It would takes care of the seals and the PETA photographers at the same time....
